<p><em>“My whole dating thing, I’ve been kinda chillin’. I mean, I’m Chris Brown.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While Chris Brown says he’d prefer to keep the details of his February assault on Rihanna private, the pop star says she&#8217;s speaking out to help others. In a new interview with MTV News Monday, Rihanna opened up on why she sat down for a candid interview with ABC’s Diane Sawyer, which aired on <em>20/20</em> last week.</p>

<p><span id="more-15542"></span><br />
<em>&#8220;It was the biggest weight lifted off my chest,&#8221; </em>she told <em><a href="http://www.mtv.com/videos/news/454455/rihanna-i-always-want-to-help-young-women.jhtml#id=1625888">MTV News</a>. &#8220;If you watch the interview, you see it was a subject that I didn&#8217;t talk about for the eight months that I didn&#8217;t talk about it, so that was my first real time opening up. I had a lot of tension bottled up. So when I finally spoke about it, it felt really good. More importantly, it felt good that people got something positive out of it, because it&#8217;s devastating. It&#8217;s not fun to talk about or listen to, but there are a lot of women who are going through it, a lot of teenagers who are scared to talk about it. So I thought it was a good thing that I can be that voice for them and help them get out of that situation.&#8221;</em></p>

So unconditional that I went back. It&#8217;s humiliating to say this happened. To accept that? It&#8217;s a traumatizing experience.&#8221;</em><br />

<p>During the interview, she confirmed that Brown, 20, held her in a headlock twice and bit her on the ear and fingers the night before the 2009 Grammys last February. The attack occurred in Los Angeles’ Hancock Park neighborhood as Brown drove a rented sports car.</p>
<p><em>&#8220;I stayed. I even went back after he beat me, which was wrong,&#8221;</em> Rihanna said. <em>“It’s completely normal to go back. You start lying to yourself&#8230;I’ll say that to any young girl who is going through domestic violence: ‘Don’t react off of love.’”</em></p>
<p>Rihanna, 21, also hinted that it may have taken <em>&#8220;eight or nine attempts&#8221; </em>before she could finally leave the relationship. </p>
<p><em>&#8220;It&#8217;s pretty easy to go back&#8230;.When I realized that my selfish decision for love could result in some young girl getting killed, I could not be easy with that part,&#8221;</em> she says. <em>&#8220;I couldn&#8217;t be responsible for that. Even if Chris never hit me again, who&#8217;s to say their boyfriend won&#8217;t? Who&#8217;s to say they won&#8217;t kill these girls? I didn&#8217;t realize how much of an impact I had on these girls&#8217; lives until that happened.&#8221; </em></p>
<p>ABC will air more chunks of the interview on Friday’s <em>GMA</em>. The interview will air in its entirety Friday evening on <em>20/20</em>.</p>
